The Ultimate Mandalorian Figure? 3D print and paint your own.
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- I love the Mandalorian series and I wanted my own! Full size was a bit beyond me so I 3D printed then painted an 1/8 scale figure which is over 9" high.
This was so much fun to do - even the sanding was therapeutic. It often feels that my job (which this is) has very little modelling in it but loads of video editing, writing and accounts. This was an excuse to spend long hours fiddling over small pieces - pure joy!

this was so thorough and instructional!
Holy, it's nice to see you here Mikey!
HELL YES to the Speeder Bike diorama Kathy, Thank you in advance for what will be another of your beautiful builds, This is the way.
Amazing Kathy 👏🏻💯
Love it Kathy. And do you even need to ask? OF COURSE you gotta make a dio out of this to compliment that amazing paint job!
@Casper Bengtsson Diorama
OF COURSE she needs to ask. Otherwise much less comments would be written. Which would be bad for her
@Casper Bengtsson Italian God...
Correcting my mistake after i saw what @Y-it-Earp wrote. From wiki...
di·o·ram·a
/ˌdīəˈramə,ˌdīəˈrämə/ noun
a model representing a scene with three-dimensional figures, either in miniature or as a large-scale museum exhibit.
HISTORICAL
a scenic painting, viewed through a peephole, in which changes in color and direction of illumination simulate changes in the weather, time of day, etc.
a miniature movie set used for special effects or animation.
@Casper Bengtsson Sorry just a response to your question.
I am delighted to have the honour to see your works and listen to your appreciations on it, this is a pleasure from minute 0, thank you for sharing!
I am not a fan of these figures, however, you are really talented and have a done a brilliant job on this. It is not often I am really impressed, but the time and care you have put into this is a real credit to you. Fantastic.
Thank you so much Paul
How are u not a fan of these figures?
@@JayCee-ti7vf Everything is subjective, however, having the ability to appreciate art even if is not your genre is so important.
I know it's cliché to say, but I'll say it anyway:
This is the way!!
Excellent. Grogu's hair looks so good, really sells it. Your painting is brilliant makes it look full-size.
Yes to the speeder bike.
I am definitely in the centre overlap of the model railway/sci-fi Venn diagram.
Attention to detail to achieve a brilliant finished piece of work but that's why you are one of the best.
"He's not a Pea, He's special..." - might be my favourite line ever from a KMM video.
I think your hunch about going darker with the blaster was a good one - it is actually a Bergmann 1896 pistol with minor cosmetic changes, so a sombre black chemical 'bluing' is order of the day there. could probably even stand a retrospective blue-grey enamel wash.
Finally, YES - please do the speeder one day. This video has got me thinking about that sci-fi 'bounty hunter' with tracked bike project we chatted about a while back.
This is what ultimate version should be like
I can only say WOW!
This is absolutely fantastic! I'm so envious of anyone who has a 3D resin printer - not something I'll ever have.
Anycubic's photon s is around £260 Gbp (Or the Elegoo Mars for about the same) and will do a split model like this over 2 or 3 prints. I figure about £6 - £7 for resin if using the slightly more expensive water washable resin from Amazon at about £22 for 500ml bottle . Water washable saves you shelling out for IPA to clean up. Quality of the Photon s is amazing.
They came out looking fantastic. I'm a HUGE fan of Star Wars in general, including the Mandalorian. Thanks for sharing, Kathy. The speeder bike diorama sounds amazing. Look forward to it.
Yes please do speeder bike. I also downloaded same bike stl from gambody and have not painted mine yet. Their models are above par! Your skills are amazing! 👍🏼
Extraordinary detail work, its fantastic to see the evolution. So much patience and so many tiny brushes required!
You are a master!
THIS is absolutely stunning
I go through Oral B disposable electric toothbrushes often. Not from brushing too much, but rather cutting the bristles off and epoxy sand paper or emery boards to the recently cut and shaved bristle pad area. Turning them into electric sanding brushes. Can also cut the complete end off, drill a hole in the neck and epoxy your micro sanding files. I try to do the sanding in a cold area "Not hard where I am located" -3C today. Colder the material the better it sands.
Some great tips and ideas there. Electric toothbrush! I love it.
Simply put this is amazing, easily the best modeling I've ever seen. The end result and recovery with the dropped head is out of this world. Also another huge step up with your video production 👍👍.
Wow AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"He's not a pea" had me in stitches. Awesome job Kathy! Like that you used the tools/paints you had on hand. Special mention to Luke (BCR) who put me onto your channel quite some time ago. Really enjoying the evolution of the hobby with 3D printing. Oh, a speeder diorama, yes please!
Thanks. Luke’s great and he inspired me to get my first 3D printer.
No problem. Appreciate what you do. His scenery is next level & I agree with the inspiration to 3D print. My bank account however does not 😉
Noticed you still use your card for mixing paint. Check out this Aussie kickstarter wet palette; www.kickstarter.com/projects/otpwetpalette/otp-wet-palette-paint-station
No affiliation whatsoever but I have backed it
I have a home made wet palette but just didn’t think to get it out... they are awesome inventions.
They have an stl file on the kickstarter so you could print your own 😉 I have a masterson, but I like the idea of their mini palette, and the whole design is very clever. Especially the lid.
The cotton swab for Grogu's hair is nothing short of genius and exactly what I need for a tarantula print im working on. Thanks!
oh great video and paint ! THANKS !!! :D
Thank you 😁
You can use magnets for parts you want to take off, looks really amazing, I need to get back into painting.
I wish I’d done that on the head. He is stuck on his base using magnets though.
Thanks for posting this. I'm new to 3D printing and have this model. Magnets is a great idea.
That looks a million times better than anything hasbro could make
I’ve only watched two videos and I’m super interested, time to watch lots of your videos
He's not a pea! Love it. Beautiful job all the way around.
Please do the bike I wanna see you paint the whole show I’m like dying to see more ur amazing, enjoyed every minute great work !!!!!!
It’s up already. Tatooine diorama.
This is beyond stunning. Really want to 3D print some star wars figurines and paint them, hopefully can soon!
Doin the UK proud! One of the best show and tells on printing and painting!
stunning result! I love the hair on Grogu!
VERY NICE!!!!! AND HELL YES! (to the Speeder Bike diorama)
You have an amazing level of skill and confidence. I'm overwhelmed by the amount of steps involved in this but like everyone else here, loved watching every second. Hats off to your documenting and narrating as well. It's clear the same amount of detail that goes into these figures you put into your videos. Unreal.
Both Mando and Grogu look amazingly handsome!! Well done! 💙💙💙
Simply amazing work
This was inspiring! I think all of the preparation put into the metallic surfaces really shows in the result, and the subtle color shift on the rifle makes me want to try something like that.
That looks amazing.
He looks absolutely brilliant. I've got to print this mini!
Outstanding work.
Absolutely amazing
That is AWESOME!! Well done.
Round Slippy things easily fly out of your hands. Love it. Great job. I enjoy printing and painting myself.
Outstanding work. 🙌
Wow that is stunning!
Kathy! I love it! I just subscribed!!
Superb job...you have a very steady hand . Something i havent got.
I love your videos. The narration is so helpful
Wow it's beautiful!
Wow that has got to be the most impressive thing I've ever seen.
Man. You like trains, Star Wars and the Mandalorian. This has to be one of your best. Can't wait for the Speeder. Thank you for all you do, Chris

Wow!! Excellent work! I'm gonna give this a try!! Thanks for sharing!
Have fun! It’s a great model.
Wow amazing! Great work!
Just fantastic!!!
This beautiful 3D printed Mandalorian figure is only overshadowed by your Beauty and Beautiful talent. Love that accent I heard when I visited your home page. I am now subscribed.
Wow Kathy what a superb piece you of modelling. Inspiration just oozes out from this latest video whether its 3D printing, model making, the attention to detail or the informative comments and tips you pass on definitely makes you in a class of your own. Thank you for sharing.
amazing end result
Absolutely Amazing!
Thank you!
Marvelous work congratulations.
What a wonderful channel!! So glad I found you 👍🏻
Thanks so much!
😱 will be an incredible diorama and what a paint job 💪🏻
That's incredible
Total Awesomeness
great video showing all the steps
Now thats the doggies danglies, fantastic👏👏💯%😜, happy new year🎊🎉
Awesome work Kathy
Amazing work Kathy. Looks spot on.
Amazing! Great job!
Your attention to detail is flabbergasting
Really good paint job!
Wow, excellent work!
!!! Wooooow !!! You always surprise me. A state of the art.
Wow! Simply incredible! You did such an amazing job and you also put so much joy and passion into it and made it look so fun! I can’t wait to get mine started.
Thank you! Good luck with your own one.
Just beautiful
This is VERY cool and your narration and editing are spot on. The quality of your work far surpasses that or channels with millions of subscribers and you have most definitely earned my sub!
you make this look like i can do it! well done!
You can do it!
This is better than most sideshow figures
I'm so glad I came across your channel. I took a hiatus from modeling and recently went back and your work and others are a great inspiration!
It came out fantastic. Even if I had a 3D printer, I would never have the patience or skill to make something that looks this good. Back when I used to assemble plastic models, I didn't have a stead enough hand to paint details that were 3-4 times the size of the ones you painted.
I'm very OCD. This was extremely satisfying to watch.
Amazing..!
You did a very good job on that
Spectacular work. This is the way... to model.
WOW! Way to go!
Speedbike with princess Leia would I love to see.
Just found your channel. You do a fantastic job with your content! And I would also add it is nice to see a woman in the 3D print space. My niece, who just got into 3d printing, pointed out all of the 3D print content creators are guys. I just sent her the link to your channel. She was very pleased.
Thanks! I hope your niece enjoys it, it’s an awesome hobby.
Beautiful work.🙌🙌🙌🙌👏👏👏👍👍
Awesome work!
i know i am late to the party, but this explains a lot of things that i have heard off hand. thank you for this video
Glad I could help!
Kathy this is just amazing. I love the Mandalorian series and this really does do it so much justice. Well done - I don’t know how you have the patience for it though. 👍👍👍🎉🎉🎉
Mind blowing, that is excellent. I love the hair you added with the cotton bud it looks so fitting. Great work.
I'm Brazilian, your video entered my play list, I'm impressed with the techniques, this one with graffiti, your work is amazing, congratulations.
great work. loved the whole video!
Amazing job!
Wow thats awesome!!!!
Best thing that most people wont be able to emulate is the paint job, very, very nice job!
I really liked your color palette for the mando
Thank you!
